Standing there in the dark, in Alicia's room, with her so close to him made Jacob's heart pound in his chest, so loud that he couldn't imagine that she didn't hear it. It was almost surreal the way being so near her could make him simultaneously nervous and calm. Her jacket had been discarded, and now her arms were wrapped around his neck; her body hanging loosely from his own felt strangely comforting. He smiled at her, his eyes having adjusted to the darkness to be able to see her standing there before him. "I'm full of surprises." Well, that was true enough. He was certainly surprised with what he had been doing over the last ten to fifteen minutes.

For a few moments they just stood there like that, allowing their company to be conversation enough. Eventually though, Jacob broke their contact by moving from her arms and sitting gently down on the bed, taking her hand in his and persuading her to sit down with him, wrapping an arm around her shoulders and smiling. There were surprises everywhere, it would seem. "Do you mind if I take my jacket off?" Okay, maybe too many surprises.

The Summer laughed quietly as she hung loosely on him, leaning into his figure and getting a little comfortable. Seeing the warm smile on his face as he looked down at her only made the moment better, as simple as it was, it was very pleasant. "Yes, you are." She said back quietly, but she'd like to think she was too. She was surprising herself, anyways. Maybe he was feeling the same way.

Alicia said nothing as he took a seat on the bed, gently letting him guide her to the seat next to him, feeling the butterflies in her stomach go a little crazy when she felt his arm wrap around him. The brunette let out a quiet sigh, resting her head against his shoulder. It was hard for her to think at that moment. She could only feel his body against her, loving the feeling of her hand in his. "Not at all," she answered back before she really thought into it, lifting her gaze and giving Jacob a curious look. For a moment, fidgeted around with her hands, pulling back the long sleeves again until she realized -

"Oh." That's right. She was wearing his shirt. Alicia herself had offered to give it back not a few minutes ago. A fierce blush crept quickly on her face. "I - I mean, yeah - you can - I don't mind..." She brought one hand to her cheek, as if to say 'silly me', laughing nervously. Being caught off guard doused her fire a little. How could she forget something like that?

Well, it was a bit too late to back out now, or at least it felt like it was. To be fair, it couldn't be that awkward, right? …Right? Squeezing Alicia's hand a bit tighter than he should have, Jacob used his free hand to unzip his jacket, feeling the zipper reach the bottom and allow it to split apart. With a blush on his face, he slipped his hand out from hers and shrugged the jacket off of himself, setting it down a bit nervously behind him. The rational side of his brain tried to shrug any embarrassment away as easily as he had done to the jacket, considering that it was dark and she probably couldn't see much anyway. On the other hand, he was sitting there shirtless next to the girl he had just finished kissing. The girl he specifically liked quite a lot. It wasn't as big a deal for a guy to be shirtless as opposed to a girl, but still… Oh boy.

"Thanks, it… it feels cooler now." He couldn't tell what would be worse for her to see: him shirtless or his potent blush. It wasn't that he was unattractive sans clothing - he wasn't exactly muscular, but he was fit enough that he didn't have any complaints towards his looks - but he felt self-conscious all the same. He glanced over to her with a nervous smile, his heart starting to beat quickly again as he pressed his hands into the bed. It may have been hotter now than it had been before he shed the jacket.

Alicia looked down at the small space between them on the bed as he started slowly shrugging his jacket off, fighting the strong urge to flicker her eyes up and watch him. It was tempting, oh so tempting, just to lift her gaze but the sight of him undressing - even the thought of it - made her feel like she was going to melt. She was blushing hard enough as it was. Instead, she tried to focus on something else for the moment, nimbly kicking off her boots next to the best side and ridding her socks away quickly after. She pulled her legs up onto the bed and turned to face the boy next to her, feeling the bed dip aside her he reached.

A small, breathless laugh escaped her. "Does it?" she murmured softly back to him. Alicia didn't know what to do, she didn't know what she should do, but she moved anyways. Her hand raised, gently cupping his face as she found the courage to look Jacob in the eyes before falling, grazing lightly against his skin. Her fingers trailed down to his chest before pausing, she'd realized she was holding her breath then, glancing back up at him. "Jacob, I - ... I ..." She tried to find the words to say in a moment like this; something, anything, but they all were fleeting.

Jacob could feel his body stiffen up as Alicia's hand was placed upon his face. Her skin was cool, but slowly warming up in the heated room. He couldn't help but stare into her eyes, so bright and pretty even in the dark, and he got lost enough inside them that he had to stifle a surprised gasp when her hand dropped, moving down to his chest before stopping momentarily. It was a bit colder upon his bared torso than it had been on his face, but he barely noticed. In fact, he was feeling pretty warm, all things considered. Her attempts at speaking fell silent, though he knew he wouldn't be much better in turn.

Okay, what to do, what to do... Nothing came to mind. He knew he probably looked really nervous and unsure, but he couldn't wash that look from his face. Maybe not thinking about it would be better. It had worked to some degree of success over the course of the last twenty-ish minutes; he was in her bed, after all. Okay, let's try that. Closing his eyes and letting out a deep breath, he opened them and gave Alicia a soft smile, looping his arms between hers and around her back. "I think we're both a little tense, Alicia. We just need to loosen up." With that, he laid back on the bed, pulling the Summer girl with him, allowing her to lie on top of him as he got his legs onto the bed as well. The motion of his actions made their lips brush against each other, so he took the opportunity to kiss her again, something he didn't think he'd ever get tired of after that first intoxicating lip-lock. One of his hands moved off of her back and onto the back of her head, fingers moving through her beautiful hair as he deepened the kiss, their lips now crushed against each other in a passionate embrace. His shirtless body grew tensed and hot beneath her as he allowed his eyes to close, though he would've desired to see exactly how she was reacting. Okay, not thinking is the best way to go, that's good... Why am I thinking right now? Stop that.

Soft, silent gasps escaped her lips when she felt his arms wrap around her, pulling her even closer in. She wondered for not the first time that night how exactly they'd gotten here, what the two of them were doing, if this was right all. If it was wrong though, shouldn't she have felt guilty in the slightest? She didn't. Alicia wondered what was it about him that was so enticing, that always made her heart flutter. Even since the first time that they'd met, simply being near him made her want to smile. Was it his warm nature, or his cheesy jokes?There was that hesitant part of her that kept on nagging, saying she shouldn't trust him - the same voice that had been following her for almost her entire time at the school. Every embrace, every kiss, every touch; it all had to be so selfish of her and she had to be stupid to let it go this far. And yet, at his words, she simply bit her lips and nodded in agreement without a hint of hesitation.

Oh, anxious couldn't even begin to describe how she was feeling then. Normally, she'd fear the feeling, but tonight that didn't seem to stop her as she laid down on him unto the bad, one hand propped up against her pillow and the other reaching loosely around his neck, eager to keep the distance between them to a minimum.A shiver went down her spine as their lips brushed, his kiss stealing her breath away and leaving her far too light-headed. How could she loosen up, she wondered, when everything about this was intensifying? Alicia couldn't help but whimper quietly as she dug her fingers into his hair, her kisses growing more and more curious; brushing, grazing, biting gently at his lip. The brunette let her lips fall aside, against his cheek and down the smooth line of his jaw.

The Summer pulled away slowly, enough that he'd get the message to gently let her go without her say-so. "Jacob," she murmured meanwhile, calling quietly for his attention. "Open your eyes." Taking in a deep breath, and moving before she could really stop to think about what she was doing, the girl sat up; resting nimbly on his waist and shooting him a small smile. She wondered if he could see her blushing in this darkness, as even though she told him to watch, she couldn't find enough bravery to look at him herself quite yet. She reached slowly behind her back, slipping her hands under his shirt. In quick, fluid motions, Alicia undid the small band of her bra, reaching into her sleeves and pulling the straps over her arms. Almost like magic, she finally reached under the front of the shirt and pulled the under-garment out, holding it up for Jacob to see. She finally allowed herself to glance down at him with stifled pride as she dangled the black fabric over him teasingly before tossing it on the floor, eager to see his reaction.

The intensity was causing a light sweat to break out on his forehead. Shedding his jacket had brought him a kind of slight respite from the heat, but it didn't take too long before that had been rendered moot by their more... heated activity. In the back of his mind, he expected her to pull away at any second, yet she remained glued to his body, her fingers in his hair as her soft lips explored his own, an intense heat flaring up within him as those lips left his and began trailing down his cheek, his jawline. Considering both of their original hesitance, she was very skilled at exciting him with just a kiss.

Eventually though, she did pull away, and his eyes fluttered open just as she told him to do such. Initial disappointment threatened him as his arms released her and laid down upon the bed, as that little voice in the back of his head whispered, 'Told you so,' but she hadn't moved off of him. Jacob looked up at her, sitting and straddling his waist, her smile visible even in the darkness. True, he couldn't really tell if she was blushing or not, but it would be just like Alicia to have a scarlet hue to her cheeks. It was adorable, and the thought made him smile. As she remained straddled on his waist, her arms disappeared behind her back, looking as if they were going up her shirt - well, his shirt, anyway. His eyes widened a bit as her arms moved more into the sleeves of the shirt, and then finally under the front of her shirt as he was treated to his second vision of Alicia's bra. It was just as lovely a sight as the first.

He wondered if she could see him blushing beneath her. His eyes were wide as she casually tossed the garment onto the floor, looking at him now as if she was gauging his reaction. Gulping quietly, he began to tightly grip the bedsheets, unable to take his eyes off of her now; not like he was very willing to do that before anyway. "Wow, you have very talented fingers," he smiled weakly, using as much mental power over himself as he could to keep his body from shaking. However, he couldn't keep his body from tensing in the heat of the moment, and he was sure Alicia could feel certain 'tensions' against her own body, considering she was sitting on him. It was doubtful he could grow any redder. Good thing it was dark, right?
